The great field commander of World War II General Omar N. Bradley said that during the Normandy invasion in 1944 he was often awakened during the night by the noise of tanks and trucks passing under his window, without knowing whether they would be their own or the enemy's. "What did you do?" he was asked."Why, i went back to sleep," replied the General. "if my plans were working, they were our tanks, and if my plans had failed, i knew i had done my best and there was nothing more to do." In whatever field we find ourselves we should try to do our best, and then leave the issue to God. As one friend put it long ago: Worry is like a rocking chair - it will give you something to do but it won't get you anywhere.
